Actually this is why a serial modem is preferred... I would always avoid
winmodem at all. Anyway, I think about a cheap solution when the price
is less than 100$. Obviously much less is better :-)

Yes, that could be a good idea. I took a look on ebay and there's
something around but I'm not sure about it. The descriptions are poor
and sometimes there's not even the model. Just a "modem". Instead, I
found this one which seems to be "nice" to my eyes but actually I don't
know it. It's just the tricky old-fashion it has.  US Robotics Modem
USR135630D . Does anyway know it? Anyone else on this page?
